with Veeblefester, charity begins and ends at home

I don’t think Veeblefester is a charity guy, unless it’s meant for him.

When has that boss ever been giving?

Well he keeps Brutus on, I guess on some days that might be considered being charitable.

Wealthy people only make donations when there is money to be made ( charitable deductions)

For the rich charity begins in congress.

He’s not a giver, but a taker.

The chief is both giver and taker. Gives a lot of work and receives lot of money.

Poor Brutus. Veeblefester is generous with derision.

depends for the reasons I guess… :J

One year while working at a big grocery store in Alabama, I decided I was going to buy turkeys for thanksgiving for a local Waterfront Mission. Can’t remember how many I bought, I think 5 or 10. The manager of the store wanted to know why I did it. He acted as if I was stupid. I always tried to help those folks since most were homeless.

Rancid Veeblefester. The one constant in the universe.

Bossman is one of those who, when the offering plate is passed, would make a withdrawal. Also, bossy reminds me of Jesus’ parable of the three talents. Of the lord it was said that he reaped where he did not sow.

You don’t need charity, chief. Brutus, on the other hand…

A real man only takes charity as a last resort for him or for his family’s survival. However, corporate greed has changed that once common belief. However, l would bet that Brutus gives a fair amount of his own income to charities. He seems like that kind of guy…..

He would need to receive charity because………………

Well so much for that bonus, Brutus.

Oh Veeblefester, that was a charitable comment…

The only charity the Cheif will get, is if some idiot said a nice thing about him, thought Brutus…

Yes Brutus I believe in charity, that you are still here shows that I am a charitable man, continues Veeblefester…

Bossman can be surprisingly honest at times.

The Chief: it’s more blessed to give (to me) than for you to receive

Well, I believe in Charity too…..she is a rather good looking woman.

That answer was, unfortunately, totally expected.

He speaks with a forked tongue!

Brutus should quit the tea cozy business and get a job in the coffee cozy business.
